Once again, I am pleased to say that I am taking part in Hampshire Open Studios 2022.

Each August, hundreds of artists and craftspeople take this opportunity to open their doors to the public over 10 days in the second half of the month.

As a member of the Wessex Guild of Craftsmen, I will be exhibiting with eight other artists from the group at the Paterson Centre, located in the centre of the pretty village of Swanmore in Hampshire.

While some people may feel daunted at visiting one artist in their home studio, a group exhibition has plenty to offer. With a diverse range of top quality art and design there is bound to be something – or several things – to catch your eye!

Alongside my stained glass work there will be stands showing textile art, pottery, basketmaking, digital art, contemporary paintings, woodturning, decorated ceramics and digital illustration.

We are exhibiting from Friday 26th August until Monday 29th August inclusive, from 10am to 5pm daily.

The Paterson Centre is next to the church in the centre of Swanmore. Address: The Paterson Centre, Church Road, Swanmore, Hampshire SO32 2PA. Plenty of free parking right opposite the building. There is also a cafe on site which is open some of the time we are there.

Do come along and find yourself something beautiful and unique at a reasonable price. It’s never too early to shop for Christmas presents!
